Viva Las Vegas (1964) Movie Review: The Salty Nerds experience the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas in 1964 in this film about a race car driver preparing for the Grand Prix while working as a waiter to pay for his new engine. Elvis Presley stars as this waiter who strikes up a whirlwind romance with a gorgeous young woman, played by Ann-Margret, who can do WAY better than a broke waiter.

The Shining (1980) Is An Overrated Piece Of Trash

The Nerds talk about The Shining (1980) and how this beloved horror classic may actually be a bloated, pretentious, overrated, piece of trash. The table is definitely divided over what Kadish calls Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece. And though Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duvall deliver amazing performances, that's not enough for Alex and Vader like this movie.What do you think of this adaptation of the Stephen King novel? Is it a classic? It it pretentious? Is it overrated? Is it absolute trash? W...

Yes, this is the SEVENTH episode of nothing happening. Riveting TV, is it not? Aneesha is still the worst mother ever, and she's terrible to everyone. In fact, she's now resorting to torture! Harvard educated torture, apparently. The Casper crew is reunited and there's a love triangle happening that no one cares about. And Trevante keeps sneaki...

Invasion Season 2 Episode 5 entitled "Pressure Points" is actually all about torturing the audience with three very stupid and boring story arcs rather than applying pressure to anything important.Discount Zendaya and the Casper Crew make it to Paris, stay in Monty's dad's swingin' sex dungeon apartment, and finally find Casper. Aneesha gets in a car wreck, rescues a stupid little girl, and has Luke mind-meld with an alien. And Mitsuki gets all kinds of freaky with the alien butthole.That's ...
